One day while driving around town an old song came on the radio called “Why Can’t We All Just Get A Long Neck” and it made me think. I don’t think I’ll see the day when everyone in the world will get along, but there are some groups who should make the extra effort.
Republicans and Democrats have been in a constant fuss since the creation of either party. It especially shows up now when they are trying to compromise to keep the government from shutting down. I think they have a duty to compromise, so bills will be passed into laws. Politicians getting along would save time and money.
There always seems to be a disagreement between families-- some funny and some serious, from your Aunt Sally hating your cousin Bob for decades because one time when they were 12 he got the wish bone and it was her turn to the Capulet and Montuges fighting for centuries for no apparent reason. Apparently fighting families are such an entertaining subject that you can find it on almost every TV channel these days. The intelligent thing in my opinion would be for families to agree to disagree on many subjects, it would save death glares at the Thanksgiving table and disagreeing families would most likely be friends. Family members will always have disagreements in my opinion, but family is another group that has an obligation to make an effort to get along.
Sometimes fighting is a good thing when it is for
a good cause, but other times it just gets in the way of the common goal. Life would be so much easier if we could all just get along.

I agree with you but it can be hard when people have such strong personalities and are convinced that they're right.
ReplyDeleteI agree too, which is hippocritical because we argue all the time... Even when we are agreeing. Haha! And I have never heard about that song, btw. Good writing though!
